ABD New York Dreams - DVC Only

When they announced the trip on the member cruise, we were told if the trip was successful they would offer it again next year and it would be available to everyone, not just DVC members. They evidently wanted a DVC exclusive trip for only the first year and wanted it maxed out at 160 points.

So is there a generally accepted idea of how much 160 points is worth? So we could get an idea of what the price might be for the rest of us next year? I'd love to do this trip!

One point is usually rented at $10 pp. I think the point allotment for this trip is on the low side compared to the current points for the other ABDs so i don't know if that is a promo point value since its somewhat a trial.

Here's hoping they offer it next year. I hope we hear some good feedback from those going. I would really love to go in 2014. I have never been to NY and it's been on my bucket list for many years.

Same here! We had the Oct Adults Only booked but my daughter is expecting and due around then so we cancelled..earlier this year we had booked to go in April and stuff came up so we cancelled that too (just sold my Newsies tickets through Stub Hub ) so REALLY hope this trip comes up again!

PS..when we booked we paid cash..not points..and it priced out about $3,300 for both of us..plus had the $95 fee

Just talked to ABD. All trips are sold out, however, none of them sold out at 40 people. The July 3rd trip has 32 participants and 2 guides. The most any trip has is the August trip has 39 people (which means 37 participants and 2 guides). Hmmm......this is kind of curious to me. I know the person I talked to isn't in the "know" for next year, but I was told that ABD really wants feedback on this trip and there has been a TON of interest by non-DVCers as well as DVCers. It appears they didn't expect this much interest in this trip.

Interesting. I'd have to assume they are "sold out" due to room availability at the hotel. Otherwise, it doesn't make much sense.

I hope they do offer it to the general public at a half-way decent rate!

Can't say enough about how great our NewYork trip was. Living in Connecticut we visit the city quite frequently. This trip explored areas of the city we normally would have not gotten to see made lots of great new friends including our wonderful adventure guides. I will most likely be booking another adventure and staying in touch with all of the wonderful new friends. I can't wait to see all the fantastic photos we all took. These are definitely memories that will last a lifetime.
